But if you have access to a TC-Visualisation Mockup installation, you may enhance some of your components.

Or you pimp your model by putting a reflecting floor underneath and brick-walls around it.

TC-Vis allows, e.g.

using materials like smoked glas or metall that reflects environment maps

create your own materials from images and bumpmaps

applying image-based textures to a geometry

Process Simulate and Process Designer do support all these features, but have no authoring capabilities for it. You have to change a JT in your sysroot using TC-Vis and next time it's loaded its look has changed.

I did not experience a performance decrease, but used it only for rather small trade fair-models.

Activating the TrueShading-capabilities that are sleeping in our graphics-core, could also be possible.

But currently there are no such plans.

If you have a concrete usecase, you could create an official enhancement request, by opening an IR at GTAC.

Re: Movie Capturing, time-sync, high resolution, cameras

Hi, indeed, you are right. It's a bug. I know that one for a long time, but did not solve it, as I expected movie capturing to become a core component anyway... unfortunately it has not enough priority. If I find time, I might fix it some day, but my schedule is full. Sorry for that. Please try to live with C:\temp

Re: Movie Capturing, time-sync, high resolution, cameras

As you're aware of by now I'm on a mission to try and make use of PS for marketing purposes. I have received good tips from you on how to pimp my models and that TrueShading could become a reality in PS in the future.

Now, one last idea crossed my mind. Since TrueShading is available in TC-Vis, is it possible to batch export images from TC-Vis to a video file and thus create a video with TrueShading? I'm aware that manual handling of thousands of images is out of the question. I'm referring to some sort of automated process.

In this High Definition age it's always nice when you can impress the customer with some really high quality video.
